In Gaza, The UN and humanitarian partners continue to deliver assistance, despite ongoing impediments.
Yesterday, UNRWA said that they were forced to reduce the operating hours of the electrical generators in their facilities in the first week of April, as they were approaching critical levels of mechanical failure. These facilities provide a range of services to vulnerable people. The UN and its humanitarian partners need additional approvals to bring in much-needed spare parts and lubricants into Gaza to avoid further disruptions.
Meanwhile, partners continue to deliver preventive and therapeutic nutrition services to girls and boys. Last month, they screened over 72,000 children and?identified?about 2,700 with acute malnutrition – and provided thousands with ready-to-use therapeutic food.
In the first week of this month, partners working on child protection organised counselling and recreational activities for about 4,700 children. These activities help girls and boys cope with ongoing displacement and dire humanitarian conditions.
